Agricultural Value Chain Finance
Agriculture continues to be a fundamental instrument for sustainable development and poverty reduction; yet, financial constraints in agriculture remain pervasive, and they are costly and inequitably distributed, severely limiting smallholders’ ability to compete. Sudden and dramatic changes in food prices have exposed the vulnerability of agricultural production in meeting global demand and call for increased investment in agriculture at all levels. The question is how the right amount of investment can be acquired, particularly in a challenging milieu where financial uncertainty causes a reduction in available resources along with increased fear and scrutiny of risk.
In this course you will learn how Agricultural value chain finance offers an opportunity to reduce cost and risk in financing, and reach out to smallholder farmers. For financial institutions, value chain finance creates the impetus to look beyond the direct recipient of finance to better understand the competitiveness and risks in the sector as a whole and to craft products that best fit the needs of the businesses in the chain. You will also learn how value chain finance can help the chains become more inclusive, by making resources available for smallholders to integrate into higher value markets.
